@chessimprovement4180 Жыл бұрын

That depends on where the value acquired in degree mode comes into play. For example, he could be dividing by said value in the given formula. For example: 5/sin(60) would require dividing by pi/180 (or 180/pi). Thus the conversion isn’t nearly as simple, especially with a large formula

@chessimprovement4180 Жыл бұрын

Also on second thought, this applies to the angle value being plugged into the trigonometric formula. So 50 degrees * pi/180 would give you radians to then plug into the formula. In short, multiplying 0.33 by pi/180 isn’t the right answer (in fact it’s likely be way off).

Hint for the future, while using a calculator you usually have a small letter shown at the top, so you know what is the currently used unit of the angle, and it’s as follows: - D (degree), - R (radian), - G (gradian, which is 1/100 of a right angle).

Depends what you do "irl". Having a direct relationship between radius and arc-length is extremely convenient in geometry, and many engineering problems can be represented geometrically. Degrees are more arbitrary (why 360?) but fundamentally related to the radian through the pi constant.
